Copy an entire UniLink page — all blocks, design settings, and content — to a new slug in seconds, so you can run seasonal campaigns, test layouts, or spin up client pages without starting from scratch.
Building a UniLink page from zero takes time. You choose a template, add blocks one by one, style every element to match your brand, set up links, upload images, and configure settings. Once the page is right, it becomes a baseline you want to reuse — but slightly different each time. A summer campaign version. A page tailored to your Etsy niche versus your coaching niche. A client setup that starts with your own agency template. Profile Clone is the feature that makes all of this possible in one click instead of hours of repetitive work.
What Profile Clone Does
Profile Clone creates an exact duplicate of an existing UniLink page and assigns it a new slug. The copy includes everything: every block in its current order, all text and images inside those blocks, your color scheme and typography choices, background settings, SEO metadata, and the domain configuration options you had applied. The original page is completely untouched. From the moment the clone is created, the two pages are independent — changes to one do not propagate to the other.
The cloned page is immediately live under the new slug and accessible via unil.ink/new-slug. It starts in the same published or draft state as the original. If you want to set up the clone before making it public, switch the original to draft mode before cloning, or unpublish the clone immediately after creating it from the new page's settings.
For agencies managing pages on behalf of multiple clients, Profile Clone paired with UniLink's multi-page support means you can maintain a master template page and clone it each time you onboard a new client. The client's page starts complete and on-brand, and you only need to swap out the specific content that differs — name, logo, links, and copy — instead of building from a blank canvas every time.
How to Get Started With Profile Clone
- Open the Pages list — in your UniLink Dashboard, click Pages in the left sidebar. You see all pages associated with your account, including active, draft, and archived pages.
- Find the page to clone — locate the page you want to use as the source. If you have many pages, use the search bar at the top of the list to filter by name or slug.
- Open the page menu — click the three-dot icon (⋯) to the right of the page row. A dropdown menu appears with options including Edit, Preview, Analytics, Clone, and Delete.
- Select Clone Page — click Clone Page. A modal opens asking for the new slug and an optional display name for the cloned page in your Dashboard.
- Enter a new slug — type the slug for the new page. UniLink validates it in real time: green means it is available, red means it is taken. The slug must be unique across all unil.ink pages.
- Confirm the clone — click Create Clone. UniLink duplicates the page and redirects you to the editor for the newly created clone so you can start customizing immediately.
- Edit clone-specific content — update whatever is different for this version: campaign-specific text, product links, images, or CTA labels. The design and block structure are already in place.
How to Use Profile Clone for Common Scenarios
- Seasonal campaigns — clone your main page before a sale event. Update the clone with campaign-specific headlines, limited-time offers, and promo codes. Set the clone's expiry or unpublish it manually when the campaign ends. Your main page is unaffected throughout.
- Niche versions — if you serve multiple audiences (photographers and graphic designers, for example), clone your base page and customize the copy, featured products, and CTA for each niche. Link to the relevant version from the channel where that audience finds you.
- A/B layout testing — clone a page, reorder blocks or swap a hero image in the clone, then share each version to a different segment of your audience. Compare analytics between the two slugs to see which layout drives more clicks or conversions.
- Client pages (agency use) — maintain one agency template page with your standard block structure. Clone it for each new client, then replace the logo, name, colors, and links. The structural work is already done; you only personalize.
- Safe redesign staging — keep your live page as-is and clone it as a staging version. Do your redesign work on the clone. When you are satisfied, either swap the slugs or publish the clone and unpublish the original.
- Language versions — clone your English page and translate all text blocks into another language. Promote the translated slug to the relevant audience segment or region. Both pages run independently.
Key Settings Explained
| Setting | What it controls | Best practice |
|---|---|---|
| Clone slug | The URL path for the new page (unil.ink/this-part) | Use a naming convention that makes the purpose obvious — e.g., /main-summer, /main-coaching, /client-acme |
| Display name | The label shown in your Dashboard pages list (not public) | Match it to the slug purpose so you can identify pages quickly without clicking into each one |
| Published state after clone | Whether the clone is immediately visible to the public | Clone inherits the source state; if you want to edit before publishing, unpublish the clone right after creation |
| SEO metadata on clone | The title, description, and OG image for the cloned page | Update these immediately — cloned pages copy the source metadata, which can cause duplicate content issues if left unchanged |
| Analytics (separate per page) | Each page has its own analytics dashboard | Label pages clearly so analytics data in the overview is easy to compare across versions |
How to Get the Most Out of Profile Clone
Profile Clone is most powerful when you treat one of your pages as a living master template. This is a page you never share publicly — it is your internal starting point. Keep it at its best state: perfect block order, polished design, placeholder text that is easy to replace. Every time you need a new page, you clone the master, not one of your live campaign pages that has already drifted from the ideal structure.
For seasonal campaigns, plan your clone calendar in advance. Know that you will need a Black Friday page in mid-October, a New Year page in late November, and so on. Clone early, do your edits without pressure, schedule the publish date, and let the campaign pages go live automatically. When the campaign ends, unpublish rather than delete — archived pages preserve their analytics data, which is valuable for planning next year's campaign.
When using clone for A/B testing, keep the test clean: only change one variable between the two versions. If you change the hero image and the CTA text and the block order all at once, you cannot identify which change drove the performance difference. One variable per test, then iterate on the winning version.
Agencies should document their client template page in their internal workflow. When a client is onboarded, the first step is always: clone the agency template, rename it to the client slug, hand off editor access. This standardizes onboarding time and ensures every client page starts with the same quality baseline rather than whatever the last team member remembered to include.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
| Problem | Likely cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Clone slug shows as unavailable even though no page exists there | The slug is reserved by UniLink for a landing page or system route | Try a different slug; reserved slugs include words like "pricing", "help", "blog" and similar platform terms |
| Images in the clone show broken | Source images were hosted externally and have since gone offline | Re-upload the images directly to UniLink's media library in the cloned page editor to host them on UniLink's CDN |
| Clone is visible publicly before edits are complete | Source page was published; clone inherited the published state | Go to the clone's page settings and toggle it to Draft immediately after creation, before editing |
| SEO metadata is identical to the original page | Clone copies all metadata from the source | Open Settings → SEO on the cloned page and update the title and description to reflect the clone's specific purpose |
Pros
- Complete page duplication in one click — blocks, design, content, and settings all copied
- Original page is completely untouched; the clone is fully independent
- Eliminates repetitive setup work for campaigns, client pages, and A/B tests
- Each clone has its own analytics, so you can compare performance across versions
Cons
- SEO metadata must be manually updated on the clone to avoid duplicate content
- Clones do not stay in sync with the source — changes made later to the original do not propagate
- Managing many clones increases the complexity of your pages list if not named clearly
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I clone another user's page or a public UniLink template?
You can only clone pages that belong to your own UniLink account. You cannot clone another user's public page directly. However, UniLink's template library lets you start from a pre-built template, which serves a similar purpose for common use cases.
Does the clone inherit my custom domain settings?
The clone inherits the block structure, design, and content of the source page. Custom domain assignment is a separate setting that you configure independently for each page. After cloning, go to the clone's domain settings to assign a custom domain if needed.
How many clones can I create?
The maximum number of pages (including clones) on your account depends on your UniLink plan. Free accounts have a lower page limit; paid plans allow more. Check your plan's page limit in Dashboard → Settings → Plan.
Will changes to the original page affect the clone?
No. Once a clone is created, it is a fully independent copy. Editing the original page has no effect on the clone, and editing the clone has no effect on the original. They share no data after the moment of cloning.
Can I clone a page to a different UniLink account?
Not directly through the Clone feature. Cloning works within a single account. To move a page structure to a different account, you would need to manually recreate it. Exporting and importing page configurations across accounts is not currently supported.
